using array - Shell Programming and Scripting

RianTan · #1 08-31-2005

how can i list and store all the results into an array?
say for example listing of file names and storing them individually into an array.

Code:

#!/bin/ksh

set -A filesA $(find . -type f 2>/dev/null)

typeset -i i=0
while (( $i < ${#filesA[*]} ))
do
    echo "index->[${i}] value->[${filesA[$i]}]"
    ((i+=1))
done

There is no array datatype in Bourne shell. Change to something more recent.
